At the end of december, on my way home for the Christmas holiday, I planned a layover in Abu Dhabi for only one reason. Ever since seeing the first renderings, I was eagerly awaiting the completion of this building. After a long delay and endless construction, the Abu Dhabi Louvre opened its door with a lot of hype in November 2017. I had a to visit this building asap. I spent a long afternoon at the project, observing every nook and cranny, almost completely forgetting there was art on display as well.
